BMW M3 Forum (E90 E92) - View Single Post - Replaced My U.S. (Gloss Black) Mirrors w/ Euro (Matte Black) Side Mirrors

I always liked the matte black side mirrors that came on the E93 M3 in the US and the E9* M3 lineup in Europe. I felt the gloss black housings that came on the American E92 M3 picked up water spots and scratches too easily, so I went ahead and ordered the left and right European housings from ecstuning.com: part numbers 51168041911 and 51168041912. Together they cost a little more than $600, but I sold my old gloss black housings to an E90Post member for $450, so I'm not losing too much. I've also made a DIY as I know quite a few of you are interested in this mod:

For those wondering, the CF 1x1 mirror caps are from EAS.
